Overall, I really want to emphasize that the host, Daniel, was extremely accommodating and communicative. He deserves 11/10 for being a great host. I did find the property a bit underwhelming… it was one of the more expensive places I have ever paid for on Vrbo and I’m hoping the price was a reflection of the busy tourist season. I did not feel that the property was a good value for the rate. It could use some updates and a couple more amenities. The TVs did not have streaming capabilities, there is no grill, there is older carpet throughout and the bed was pretty uncomfortable. These are very easy fixes and there were also plenty of positives. We loved the location, that it was pet friendly and that the basic comforts of home were available. With a little tlc, it would be well worth the price. Also probably more ideal if you’re splitting the cost between 2 couples or something like that. It did appear as pictured, so there were no unexpected surprises. We had some bad weather, so couldn’t get out as much and I know most people would come to this area to mostly get out and do things and not worry about where they’re staying. It was a solid place to stay and I wish it met the expectations I had based on the great host.

Nice, quiet neighborhood close to the sound and the beach. Very spacious and clean. Host was very accommodating and easy to get ahold of.

Cute, cozy beach cottage. Located on a quiet street, close to Bay Drive for the XC runners :) Straight shot to the beach, close to restaurants and shopping. The girls had a great time! Thank you.

Great stay here for our family of 5. Very clean, comfortable beds and a very quiet neighborhood.

The property was wonderful for a family. There was plenty of room to spread out or spend time together. We were able to walk to the beach on the 4th of July and avoid getting caught up in traffic. The outside shower was great after the beach. The property owner checked on us after check in to make sure that everything was as expected.

Great first time using Vrbo. Excellent communication with Daniel before, during and after our visit! The house made us feel like home away from home. The kids (4 teenagers) loved having space to relax and chill after the beach. We loved walking the short distance to the bay to watch the sunset. It's close to the beach, shopping, lighthouses and great places to eat local cuisine! We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to family and friends that plan an Obx vacation!

We had a great week staying at this home. The location near the sound was near a bike path and a quick walk to some beautiful sunsets. The home was clean and just as described. The communication with the host was excellent. We would definitely stay again.

We stayed in Daniel’s beach house for a long weekend. We originally had it booked the week before but due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to change dates and Daniel was very flexible with it. The house was clean, well-stocked and well-organized. Loved the location. It was walking distance to the sound and just a quarter mile drive to the public beach access. It was close to stores and restaurants. I went out for a run and the multi path trail has a great view of the sound. Would love to come back next summer!
